thanksgiving leftovers

At our Thanksgiving table this year were "the real guests" -- a mother, recently (two years ago) widowed, her son and daughter, and her son-in-law. Interesting family. Very close. Robert surfed for the son and discovered his friendster persona. This is his mom's testimonial for him -- ouch. (Do note that this might be a particular brand of humor, but one that I'm quite unfamiliar with):

My son Harry is a wonderful boy. I hear he is doing very well these days -- a big 'macher' with all the politics and such. I used to see him often but lately it is few and far between. He'll be very upset when Im gone and he thinks about all the time he spent not calling me.
